this is the error i find when i try to install, I think this is rhn support error when I try to do software updates from GUI it tell me to register and put subscription ID. what I suppose to do, please help me I am try to solve this problem from 1week.
Do you have a subscription? If so use it, otherwise you won't get support from RH.
You could set up CentOS repositories, but you'd be better off moving to CentOS instead of RH (CentOS in an unbranded version of RH, but has its own repo setup)
His error does not seem to be that. He has not got his subscription activated and hence he is getting the errors.
As billymayday suggested above, he should move from RH to CentOS if he does not have any paid subscriptions.
And better, he should have posted problem in only one thread and in one forum. Already had hijacked a very old thread in newbie forum that I just answered.
use #yum install bind*
it will take all the packages of bind.
first of all you make a repo file to install a package using yum.
or
otherwise use #rpm -ivh bind* --aid --force --alldeps
ok
What is diffrent between cestos and Rhel5, guy I need to give exam so please guide me which OS I should use confuse.
And I dont have subscription of RHN support is there anything to stop rhn support, bcoz wen I am try to Use yum from client OS it works but not on Server.
There not much difference between RHEL and CentOS. CentsOS is derived from RHEL, or should I say it is RHEl without logos and enterprise network and subscriptions. Theres no difference what-so-ever in the usage. You wont find much difference while you are practicing.
